Forbes announces Dominican edition

Forbes has officially announced that its Dominican Republic edition will be available at newsstands in late March. The editions are being published in partnership with Media Business Generators (MBG). Forbes Media COO Mike Federle says that the issues are being launched because they see an opportunity to grow the Forbes Brand in Central and South America.

A rooftop event at the Torre Corporativo in Santo Domingo with the presence of CEO of Forbes LATAM Max Linares, Forbes president of LATAM Mariano Menendez, and Vice president of LATAM Marco Landucci and vice president of Americas Edward De Valle II was held to launch the magazine.

"Since its inception, Forbes has been an authoritative source of news and cutting edge information on business, investing, technology, entrepreneurship, leadership and affluent lifestyles," said Xavier Pires, editor-in-chief for Forbes Dominican Republic. Previously, Pires was executive editor for Hola! magazine in the Dominican Republic.

The new Dominican Republic and Central America editions will feature content from the local editorial teams, as well as international stories. Once launched, each edition will also have a local website.

Media Business Generators (MBG) publishes Forbes Mexico, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, El Salvador, Honduras and Dominican Republic. 

5 Best beach retirement cities in the world

Sosua/Cabarete, Dominican Republic

Where the verdant green jungle hills slope into the crystal-blue waters off the north coast of the Dominican Republic rest the sand-fringed towns of Sosua and neighboring Cabarete. These are beachfront utopias. There are no high-rise towers, no big crowds and no worries. Life here is all about enjoying what mother nature has created in this world-class coastal spot.

The life on offer here is also increasingly appealing to retirees. Expat communities are established and expanding, and planned developments are under way to cater to them. Retirees settling here can choose luxury living in planned communities where houses sell for $400,000 to $800,000, but also have much more affordable options in coastal developments where homes are priced from $130,000 to $150,000.
